Achieving strong consistency in an eventually consistent distributed system

Abstract:

A computer-implemented system and method for achieving strong consistency in an eventually consistent distributed system. The system comprises a database and an application server hosting a computer software product that a user subscribes to in order to access the product via a user device over a network. The application server receives a first service request from the user device for obtaining a first set of features associated with the user. The application server may ensure that the user receives a useable and correct set of features.
